MHI Wins Honors in Dallas McSam Awards

The Plantation Homes model in Arlington’s Viridian community was the award winner for Best Merchandising in a model priced between $325,001 and $400,000. This traditional family home features a palette of neutral tones that help rooms seem larger than what has been designed for the 40-foot homesites, said Rudy Pospisil, division president for MHI.

“Light cream walls, floors and furniture of weathered oak and white cabinets and white trim create a sense of spaciousness,” he said. “It’s a prime example of how interior design and architectural design can complement.”

The model was merchandised by MMI. Plantation Homes’ designs in Viridian are priced from the $340,000s.

Coventry Homes’ model at Merion at Midtown Park, Design 2052, was named as having Best Architectural Design for a Patio Home. Created for a sophisticated urban buyer, this model features two stories with an open-concept kitchen, living and dining areas on the first floor, as well as a master suite and powder room. Upstairs is a second bedroom, full bath, game room and study loft that can be converted into a third bedroom. Two outdoor areas expand the living space and solar-powered lights on the garage panels and doors into the home are a departure from typical design. Pricing in Merion at Midtown Park, located east of Central Expressway and south of Royal Lane, is from the $440,000s.

The Merion at Midtown Park model also was a finalist for Best Interior Merchandising for a Patio Home. Plus, Coventry Homes was a finalist in another category of the McSam Awards. Design 4166 at Edgestone at Legacy in Frisco was a finalist for Home of the Year.

“The red hot Dallas housing market has the best in the business building homes and developing communities,” Pospisil said. “We are honored to be included in those ranks.”

More than 350 entries were made this year in the McSam Awards, which was created in 1979 to recognize significant and creative contributions to residential marketing.
